Adds a template tag ‘trackback_template()’ that displays the list of trackbacks for a post/page. This is especially useful for sites that are displaying the comments using a seperate service (i.e. Disqus).
Modifying the template
By default the plugin displays the trackbacks as an unordered list inside a div with the id “trackbackslist” with a h3 heading “Trackbacks” above the list Alternatively if you’re comfortable with editing HTML & PHP you can add a file called trackbacks.php into your template folder and the plugin will use that to style this list. The file trackbacks.php in the plugin folder contains the default code & is a good starting point for customising your own template. Copy it into your template folder and it will be used instead of the default file.
- 01Download the zip file & extract the contents to /wp-content/plugins
- 02Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- 03Place the tag trackback_template() on your template where you want the trackbacks to appear (probably above or below the normal comments section in the single.php template file)
